About Felisha

Felisha Tillman is a Licensed Professional Counselor–Mental Health Service Provider (LPC-MHSP) practicing in Tennessee with eight years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, and depression. Many clients come when they feel overwhelmed, stuck, or exhausted by emotional burdens that have become hard to carry alone.

Her approach is direct and trauma-informed. Sessions focus on understanding patterns that keep someone in survival mode and on practical skills to cope better. Conversations aim to clarify what matters now and to build everyday habits that reduce reactivity and increase steadiness.

Felisha draws on several evidence-based approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT). Those methods are used to help with emotion regulation, communication, and rebuilding trust in relationships.

She also supports people working through abandonment, attachment concerns, caregiver stress, body image and identity struggles, substance issues, grief, and family conflict. Her background includes community mental health, crisis intervention, and integrated behavioral health settings, which inform a structured but relational style.

Sessions emphasize clear goals, measurable steps, and skills that can be applied between appointments. The focus is on practical change: learning to recognize patterns, practice new responses, and move toward a clearer sense of purpose and daily functioning.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and refocus on what matters most, often using short exercises and values-based goals to guide action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down thinking and behavior patterns into manageable steps and teaches practical skills to change those patterns, which can be practiced between sessions. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on understanding and expressing emotions in relationships, and can help with connection issues and improving communication.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will help assess needs, goals, and preferences and then try methods that fit those aims. Sessions are collaborative, and adjustments are made based on how well a method is helping the person meet their goals.

Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified in the biography. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people practice skills between sessions in real-world settings and bring those experiences back to talk through with the therapist.
